Prophet’s Column Rebellious Generation” "Hear, O heavens, and give ear, 0 earth: for the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me,” (Isa. 1:2). The Lord gave these weighty Words to the Pro phet Isaiah after Israel had rebelled against the com mandments of the Lord. The same is true of our generation today. We are living in the most re bellious age the world has _ever known. There is no law and order! God has been especially good to America. But America has rebelled against God America rebelled against -God by kicking the Bible and prayer out of the public schools. The souls who led the fight to throw the Bible out of the schools will par take of the greatest damn ation in Hell. There are two things on this earth that are precious in the sight of my heavenly Father; His writ ten Word, and His elect. Don't bother either one; if you do, it can be said of you as it was said of Judas, “it had been better for that man that he had never been bom.” If you don’t believe the Word of God you are condemned already. And one day not too distant in the future you are going to see the folly of fighting Almighty Sovereignty. Be cause of the sin of forni cation, twenty three thou sand fell in one day, (I Cor. 10;8), God means just what He says in His Word. “God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day. If he turn not, He will whet His sword; He hath bent His bow, and made it ready” He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; He ordaineth His arrows against the persecutors,” —£Eb^7z:11-13). God’s on His throne. You cannot defeat God! What is man but a worm! Just a wiggling maggot, and you stick your I J.M Little chest out and bow up at God. God can and will cut you off without a moment’s notice. The rebellious soul is foolish, “The foolish shall not stand in Thy sight: thou ha test all workers of in iquity,” (Ps. 5:6)1 I don’t worry about souls who fight mer in the -first place -4 know that those who fight me are not saved, which means that God is angry with you every day and any moment—you -could—be dashed into Hell. And your place will be sought for but not found. The Lord may permit you to fight me for a season, but I wouldn’t be in your place for ten thousand worlds. “Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set them selves. and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD and against ‘His anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us,” (Ps. 2:1-3). I know these verses pertain especially to the Antichrist and his followers, but they also apply to every re bellious soul living on the earth today. You don’t want God's restraint on you. Some of you children ■ under the truth are wishing you had been born in an other family. You don’t like ' the restraints on you from godly parents. You should be on your knees everyday of your lives thanking the Lord for letting you be bom in a family where your dad and mother are saved. If you just knew what a bless ing you have it would hum ble you before the Lord. But in your natural pride, and hatred for the Lord you are rebelling and kicking against the restraints the Lord has placed on you. Don't kick against the re straints the Lord has placed on you. If you sue i cessfully get out from un der the restraints and con victions the Holy Spirit has on you, you are doomed for Hell. I plead with you, don’t fight against the Lord’s restraints. Pray that the Holy Spirit will so convict you that you will come to want Christ more than your yery life. Oneway rwas in rebellion and fighting the restraints the Lord put on me. What if I had success fully gotten away from the convictions and wooings of the Holy Spirit? 1 tell you, my friends, I would have received one of the hottest places in Hell. It is a tragedy beyond definition to go to Hell from under the truth. Some of you young people here are fighting the Gospel. You feel that mama and daddy are too . strict nn you and you want to get out on your own so you can do what vou want to. Oh, may the Lord break your rebellion, you are on the broad way that leads to destruction. It’s a sad day in which we live. My heart breaks to see you go on in rebellion. Will it be said of you that you died in re bellion? You cannot go on as you are going, if you do, you are going to Hell. You may be saying you are going to do your own can, the Lord says of you; “He that sitteth in the hea • vens shall laugh; the LORD shall have them in • derision,” (Ps. 2:4). You didn’t know the Lord would laugh at you, did you? Friend, the Lord doesn’t need you, but you need Him. The very Lord you are spurning is the Lord of all mercy Who at this very moment is keeping you out of Hell. Think on your way and turn your footsteps to ward the Lord Jesus Christ. You can’t run from Him, run to Him, sinner! May the Lord help you. “A REBELLIOUS GENERATION” Curtina P.
